On Sunday’s Meet The Press, David Gregory challenged GOP hopeful Michele Bachmann on her anti-gay views. Among other things he asked whether she believes a same-sex couple raising children constitutes a \u201cfamily.\u201d Bachmann doesn\u2019t. The 2010 Census shows that there are at least 13,718 same-sex couples living in Bachmann\u2019s home state of Minnesota, and 2,372 of those couples report raising children.<\/p>\n
GREGORY: Can a gay couple who adopt children, in your mind, be considered a \u201cfamily\u201d?<\/p>\n
BACHMANN: When it comes to marriage, and family, my opinion is that marriage is between a man and a woman. And I think that\u2019s been my view \u2014<\/p>\n
GREGORY: So a gay couple with kids would not be considered a \u201cfamily\u201d to you?<\/p>\n
BACHMANN: You know, all of these kind of questions really aren\u2019t about what people are concerned about right now.<\/p>\n
